There's only a few more days left before NaNo starts!
I still don't know how much I will be able to participate, considering I have no time to eat and sleep it seems.....I might only do 10k like I did last year.
Soooooo, who's going to partake this year!?
Any thoughts on for what you're going to write about yet? Or are you like me and have no clue
Let the NaNo chatter begin ^^
My progress:
1,368/5,000

My name on there is Crystal Charee -- original, huh? Anyone is welcome to add me as a buddy.
I finished the rough draft of my first novel and the overall wisdom seems to be to leave it alone while you write your next project, so I'm going to take a month off of revising to do NaNo. I'm excited.  _________________

NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel Writing Month, and it's held in November. The website is nanowrimo.org but it seems to be having a bit of trouble at the moment. I recall it being really slow for me in past years.
The goal is to write 50,000 words in a month
But for the people like me who has had their soul consumed by school (or life), you can always set a lower goal. I did 10k last year =)

I can't believe Nano is starting up again tomorrow!
Last year was the first time I actually won, and so I was really pumped up about writing the sequel for my book this year. I participated in both the camps to help edit that novel.
And now...I totally seemed drained of motivation. I still want to write the sequel though, and Nano is a great excuse to force myself to write.
Ugh, so I may just force myself to start writing and see what happens.
I'm Amurita on there too, btw, if anyone wants to add me as a writing buddy.

I'm not even sure if I'll be able to make 10k like last year
Heck, I'm not even sure what I want to write about yet....I have a couple of stories I've put on the back burner, but with school, I have had no motivation. Blarg

That's awesome. I remember in years past, this has gotten a bit of attention. _________________

I so have an idea for NaNo this year!!!!
The problem is there is a midterm on Monday, which requires me to spend the weekend studying instead of writing. Bah - I can get an outline going during the weekend at least.
Okay, my goal for NaNo 2013 is 5k. It's small but I'm not going to let school take this from me!! lol
And if I manage to write more, it's an even bigger win for me
Agent Xarxes - are you going to participate? =)

So...I ended up not participating in NaNoWriMo this year Dx
I was busy with moving and some online courses that I was taking that I never really felt like doing Nano at all. I really do want to do it next year though, since it's good motivation to work on my book series.
How about the rest of you? Now that November's nearing it's end how have you all faired with writing?

I got bogged down with school and had no motivation to write....I got a little over a thousand words. I'm sad, since I love NaNo, but I just couldn't do it this year. Oh well, there is always next. And after next year, I won't be in school, so I should have time to write!
